Hemlock EMP Duration

I have only one thing to say about the person who decided on the Hemlock EMP duration, "Insert synonym for IMBECILE." The person who suggested 7 seconds must have been high, drunk or at the least not thinking clearly. Everything else has 3 or 4 seconds duration, but the HEMLOCK last SEVEN SECONDS!! SEVEN!! I shouldn't be the one to say that 7 seconds in a battle is an eternity, but I am saying it.

Total agree! This is the first thing that needs to be nerfed next time game changes come up.

Hello! Firstly, we have a certain set of rules on our forum, so I call you to follow them to ensure a positive and friendly atmosphere here, as otherwise, we wouldn't have any constructive feedback that may and probably will impact our future developments in the game. I understand your emotions. but it's too much.

Hemlock is a Tier VIII Legendary Mech. It must be powerful. Still, it is a Support Mech that doesn't have as high HP and Energy Capacity as others in this Grade and Tier. Although its Ability provides a decent stun, it's still not a problem for a well-cooperated team to knock it off the battle.

So, I'd recommend nothing but experimenting 😉 At this moment, no rebalances are planned, but we may return to this question in the future. Your feedback is considered.

I agree that hemlock does not need an nerf. its not an all powerful mech and its ability doesn't stun you instantly. its only annoying for people that are close rang fighters or are on their own, at least from my point of view

You must not play much 2v2 with Hemlocks. You can keep a player stunned for an entire 2 minute round, creating an unfair 2 on 1 situation for the entire round since the cooldown is shorter than the duration with implants. The Hemlock doesn't even have to expose itself to danger in this instance on most . And yes, this is easily done against experienced vets as well...

Yesterday I was playing 2v2 and a player with solis or whatever it's called(the mech that blinds you) they tuned my screen white 1 time and it annoyed me so bad that for the rest of the round, I kept them frozen and stunned. They didn't use the blinder bot again after that. I literally controlled the player while killing their non human preprogrammed bots using hemlock.

Hemlock is my 2v2 main due to the game always putting me against stronger opponents with stronger non human preprogrammed bots while giving me dumb non human preprogrammed bots that just feeds itself to the opponent.

I haven't read the responses to this comment. Let's start from the beginning. Crystal mentioned that Hemlock is a legendary mech with low HP. You should look up the Mech Stats. You buy the Hemlock with 116000 HP before Pilot upgrades. The SURGE is also a legendary mech with slightly over half the stun duration and significantly less HP. The Hemlock Stun Duration is 7s with a cooling down of only 10. That means it can keep you pinned almost indefinitely from the other side of the arena. The above comment about 2 v 2 is entirely accurate. Do not get me started with this Nyla comment (do not know what to say to that). I understand you guys have little time because of all the other issues ... wish list ... I would like blueprints for things you own and use, correct tournament matching, and reasonable instead of exorbitant prices (over $50 for an implant). I know these things will not happen (and it has been awhile) ... BUT I am hopeful. I really love this game. However, the prices are becoming unreasonably high. Everything that is supposed to benefit us always comes with a hefty price tag. My friends and I are starting to regret ever playing.

Pretty sure whoever designed hemlock had zero clue what they were doing or they purposely made it that way to push sales. With implants, the duration is longer than the cooldown and since the cooldown starts immediately after tagging another mech, mechs can be frozen indefinitely. Max implants gives you 7 second cooldown with a duration of 9 seconds. Break even point is only level 4 implants. That makes absolutely zero sense. Cooldown shouldn't start until after the duration has completed like every other mech with a similar ability like surge, zephyr, etc...

yes and to make the bots use this abililty is a complete dirtbag way to frustrate players into spending.  just make a game and let it evolve naturally!! good stuff on the idiots and their Hemlock garbage

does not need to be nerf'd it's stun duration can be released from hypnosis with just a few shots and then is free in two seconds!  When surge stuns and does whole system shut down you don't get relieved after two seconds after getting shot !  And is the most annoying!   Not to mention all these players with revolver maxed out is super annoying I thought poker was a short distance weapon but it seems I'm getting hit from 60+m !!!  I can't stand revoker !   And the price on weapons and Mechs in the shop is ridiculous 100 bucks for one and you don't even get any acoins or credits !!  It's beyond greedy!  I love Hemlock it's my main mech besides seeker ! Do not nerf !!!  I agree matchmaking especially in the tournament needs to be fixed! I don't have one mech in my hanger that is maxed out nor do I have any weapons that are maxed out I shouldn't be going against other players that are fully maxed ! Regardless of skill !  As for the new heavy duty weapon that just came out it sucks the fire rate is ridiculously slow and doesn't do as much damages as asumed !  I should've got the disruptor 10 ! I think for new weapons we should be able to test them out before we have to purchase or at least a practice round against bots or something so you can test the weapon to see if you like it or not !

SHEREKHAN He suggested that we should be able to test a weapon before buying it.

This is one of the better ideas I have seen. The opportunity to test your WEAPON or MECH for one round before finalizing your purchase. I am sure Plarium's response would be "We appreciate the suggestion; however, we have reservations about its feasibility. "

Plarium: "We've nerfed zephyr so you don't end up frozen all match"


Also Plarium: Adds a mech that can literally singlehandedly freeze you all match

Well to be fair, post-nerf zephyr had 6 seconds, and he could stun an entire TEAM with 30m.

On some maps, there was almost no space to escape it.

With Hemlock at l least you kinda need LoS, and can only stun one target at a time.
